The KKK Is Working To Get Out The Vote — For Donald Trump, Of Course

With just a week until Election Day, the Ku Klux Klan appears to be ramping up its effort to get GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump into the White House.

Residents in Alabama, Georgia, Kansas and Louisiana have all reported finding fliers from the KKK outside their homes in recent days. The materials contain calls for people to vote and join the organization as it tackles hot-button social issues with exactly the level of contemplation you might expect from a racist hate group.

“Please join and help us take our country back,” reads a flier recently distributed in Madison, Alabama. “Black Lives Matter Black Panthers are telling followers to kill white people and police officers in the name of justice for the killing of Negro’s (sic) by policemen in the line of duty. These Negro’s (sic) were not innocent. They were thugs breaking the law, and standing up against police.”

Residents have expressed disgust over the past week after finding similar literature in Wichita, Kansas, and Towne Lake, Georgia, where the KKK referred to transgender individuals as an “abomination” who should consider suicide.

“If your (sic) confused and don’t know what sex you are today, use a tree out in the back yard,” a Georgia flier read.

Spelling is apparently not the KKK’s forte.

In the town of Many, Louisiana, Klan pamphlets encouraged people to “get out to the poles (sic) and vote,” because, “Your vote could decide if we have a country anymore or not.”

The fliers say they’re from the Loyal White Knights, a branch known for this form form of self-promotion. Will Quigg, one of the group’s dragons or wizards or demogorgons or whatever, previously tried to convince the media that he’ll actually be voting for Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, but his own comments appear to have betrayed that claim.

Although the fliers don’t appear to directly mention Trump or his candidacy, they use language that points to the KKK’s love affair with the real estate mogul, which The Huffington Post has extensivelydocumentedthroughoutthecampaign. Trump’s thinly veiled rhetoric of racial division and tough talk on immigration ― building a wall on the southern border and banning entire groups of people from immigrating to the U.S. ― has energized white nationalists and the so-called alt-right. And Trump has, in turn, struggled to distance himself from white supremacists ― when he’s bothered to try at all.

Elsewhere, white supremacists are seeking to advance and capitalize on Trump’s popularity for their own political gains.

Louisiana Senate candidate David Duke, a former KKK leader who has repeatedly embraced Trump’s mantle, released an ad last week calling for supporters to vote for Trump on Election Day.

These are just the latest examples of white supremacists seizing on the Trump movement in hopes of getting more visibility for their own causes, said Mark Potok, senior fellow at the Southern Poverty Law Center, a nonprofit that tracks hate groups.

“They feel that their message is more palatable now that, in their view, a major political candidate is virtually saying the same things,” Potok said.

But while these groups may be getting more attention, they’re still fringe compared to Trump, who has the support of more than 40 percent of Americans, according to recent polling.

“The Klan and other groups have probably grown thanks to Trump,” Potok said. “But the claims that they’ve recruited thousands and thousands and thousands of people as a result of Trump’s candidacy and the whole politics of the last year are clearly false.”

Trump’s campaign pushed back on the KKK newspaper’s endorsement, saying in a statement late Tuesday that “their views do not represent the tens of millions of Americans who are united behind our campaign.”

This story has been updated to include the Trump campaign’s statement.

Readers: A Trump vote is a vote for white supremacy. A no vote is a vote for white supremacy.

Ruth: I am always thinking of all of you. Miss you as well. Looking forward to the next time…soon. Love you all. ❤️

President Obama just announced to MSNBC that he’s personally monitoring Army Corps of Engineers efforts to reroute the Dakota Access Pipeline (#dapl) away from the sacred lands of the Standing Rock Sioux tribe in North Dakota.

Obama expressed that as a country, we must respect the traditions and claims of the First American people:

“We’re monitoring this closely. As a general rule, my view is that there is a way for us to accommodate the sacred lands of Native Americans. Right now the Army Corps is examining ways whether there are ways to re-route this pipeline. We’re going to let it play out for several more weeks, and determine whether or not this could be resolved in a way that is properly attentive to the traditions of the First Americans.”

/SB ‘play out for several weeks’ without that injunction in place could be a tough situation for our first Americans, I hope that part is being considered and done.

Ugh, the KKK it’s one group I have not gone into the rabbit hole of research about, not sure I want to…I don’t understand that level of hatred at all. Maybe one of our resident racists can explain what all the hate and fear is about, it’s just baffling.

Trump only divorced himself from then bc he thinks he’s a classy guy and doesn’t want any one hate group having him, why do that when he can have women and all OTW’s.

Luv and early voting to you, Zen Lill

PS I’d rather research what bils like Koch Bros, Soros, and other under the radar B’s are planning.
That being said … #imwithher

The crapola of Make America Great Again – is code for Make America White (& male) Again. The obvious bigotry displayed in ths election cycle has really been appaling, unfortunately, many in this country seem to think thats just great.

The fact that the polls appear to be close tells me that most White Americans are quite okay with the KKK, their violence and terrorism and the racism and discrimination which pervades the USA. How can you people live with yourselves by voting for such a despicable human being? Come on White America.

We’ll see what the ultimate poll (voting on Nov 8th) turns up. I believe Hillary Clinton will win. My HOPE is that it turns out to be by a landslide, and that America firmly repudiates this racist, fascist, misogynistic, xenophobic, ethically challenged, self-absorbed excuse for a Presidential candidate.

Of course, Trump could himself repudiate the KKK and neo-nazi support he is getting, but he has continued to remain silent on the matter, and the media have not pressed him for an answer over this. Shame on them. Shame on Trump.
